The Puppet Technique is a unique ninjutsu fighting style; this technique uses chakra threads to control puppets like marionettes. Any number of chakra threads can be used to control a puppet, but users with more skill can use fewer strings per puppet. Both Chiyo and Sasori demonstrated the ability to control entire puppets perfectly using just one thread. While most puppeteers (傀儡使い, kugutsutsukai) would normally be able to control ten puppets at most (one per finger), Sasori's self-modification allowed him to control up to one hundred puppets at a time. This technique has few weaknesses: according to Shino Aburame's observations during his fight against Kankurō, the Puppet Technique is a long range style, meaning that the puppeteers are weak against close range fighters. Since most puppeteer use his or her hands to manipulate the puppets, if their hands are disabled, then the technique can be neutralised. And because the puppet's movements are based on the mechanisms that were installed inside, interfering with said mechanisms can stall the puppet entirely. Another weakness is that a puppet's movement is dependent on the will of the user, and as such there will be a time lag between the user's commands and the puppet's response.

The first Kugutsu user dates back centuries and is written in a few books of the man who created it. Known as Akykyo he was one of the founders of Sunagakure and the second Kazekage, his statue lives within the puppet brigade's building. Akykyo was worshipped for his chakra control, and the amount of puppets he could control with a single finger. Throughout Suna and Wind country, small spires stand which are said to be a means that Akykyo could transport himself and his puppets within seconds. Hundred's of Akykyo's puppets are still held under the puppet brigade, and only those that prove themselves are able to wield them. It is considered a great honour to even look at his puppets, let alone claim and control one. However, there is one puppet that no one but the leader of the Puppet Brigade and only a select few ever see, and that is Akykyo himself. Only a Kugutsu user that has mastered the control of chakra strings is said to be able to wield him as a puppet and noone has proved themselves, yet.
